What would YOU like to see in the Data ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit?

The initial response to the Data ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit has been tremendous, but that doesn't mean we have all the answers! We've only begun to tap the enormous potential of PowerShell, and the combination of this Toolkit with other 3rd-party modules (HyperV, PowerCLI, etc.) is where things really get interesting. Here's your opportunity to tell us how you'd like to use the Toolkit and how we can improve it to help you get there.

I'll offer a few things we're already considering:

Snapvault

Consistency group

Snapshot multicreate

Reallocate

System.DateTime values in addition to Int64 values

Find-NaController (discover controllers on the network, including new, unconfigured ones)

Re: What would YOU like to see in the Data ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit?

Ideally, the Toolkit would allow full and complete configuration of the storage controllers. The Toolkit doesn't have network configuration cmdlets at present, but those are on the roadmap. The APIs for doing that are fairly new, and to broaden the support base for Toolkit v1.0 we started with the ones that have been around a bit longer.

Would like to have a commandlet that allows me to run a command against the filer, currently i have created something to use the plink tool to do this and i have scripted a number of powershell scripts around it.
